We like Hell's Kitchen. We call it 'Asshole Chef'.
Breaking Bad is a great show, and Mad Men is too. I'm pretty impatient for either or both to come back.
Stoked for the season premiere of Archer tonight. And I'll admit I got hooked on How I Met Your Mother watching it with my sisters in California. Recently been going through old seasons of King of the Hill on Netflix. That series finale was pretty much perfect.

How I met your Mother is a good watchable show for sure! King of the Hill was beautiful.
What's Archer? I know I have the internets at my disposal, but what's Archer?

Archer is on F/X; it's got H. Jon Benjamin (Coach McGuirk on Home Movies) and about 3/4 of the cast of Arrested Development. It's kind of about international espionage, from the creators of Sealab 2021. It falls somewhere between The Venture Bros. and Home Movies; it's fucking funny.
Also The Venture Bros. is one of the greatest things ever, especially the season that just ended.

oooh television? I'm not gonna lie, There is two hours each morning from 10am to noon that exudes perfection from every pore.
The price is right, and the Ellen DeGeneres show is like that pippen/jordan combo that blows my mind every time.

Ellen is very very Funny! I would love to go to her and Portia's house for a weekend, they are probably exactly like who they are on TV (I'm sure) and would be a riot.
Also BETTER OFF TED! Why did that get cancelled

Damn you guys are all over the place. From Better Off Ted to The Wire and back.
On my list of shows to watch: 1) Mad Men 2) The Wire 3) The Walking Dead or whatever that AMC Zombie show is
And my most highly anticipated show is Game of Thrones on HBO, for reasons disclosed on the Usernames Revealed thread.
I'm also a British Office devotee, and a Ricky Gervais fanatic in general.

Oh my Good Old Desk, I forgot to mention the "lovable" comic relief in the show. Some dude who is just full of the most vile and offensive shit ever toward women is supposed to be the funny guy. And, and he is LOVABLE because we all just feel SO bad that this vile little man can't get a date. At least just once oh lord! And now to the female lead, Deb. Basically in a nut shell Deb is a STRONG women because she acts like and can hang out with men. "You're the best thing ever because you are a girl, but you act like a man" NO WORD OF A LIE, that quote has been said many times in the show and in a tender fashion. WOMEN, BE MORE LIKE MEN (STOP KEEPING US ALL ACCOUNTABLE AND REFUSING US TO BE SELF ABSORBED ASSHOLES, CAN"T WE JUST HAVE SEX AND DRINK BEER AND SAY PROFANITY ALL DAY LONG?) Girl power (I'm sure), you go girl! What is it with you and women? You seem to always go above and beyond the expectation of treating them with respect to a level that leads me to believe every man on earth would be castratrated and chained to walls if you had it your way.

Twin Peaks season 2 was still great despite the massive hate on it. It was still totally Twin Peaks, what was everyone wanting from it?
